Hard to read this in its entirety with a straight face.

The good news - a full length feature film based on Aqua Teen Hunger Force? That oughta be fun.

“Hoaxes are a tremendous burden on local law enforcement and counter-terrorism resources and there’s absolutely no place for them in a post-9/11 world,” Knocke said.

~Niether are advertisments i guess...

The fact that the authorites are treating this as more than a big misunderstanding is laughable... untill i realised that britain will just follow the us' path.

They'll be banning lemmings next...

Yeah, as I said I couldn't keep a straight face, but I'm not sure whether I was laughing or crying. On the one hand, really sad what we've come to. On the other hand, what a hoot to read dry, journalistic passages about a talking milkshake, etc.

It was funny the way they insisted on calling the things "devices" to keep the scare hype on maximum.

If I understand 'The News' correctly, in Boston they found WND's (Weapons of No Destruction)? (Or, non-weaponized signage?) It's been a long time coming to finally link foodvertising and terrorism. It goes: Kevin Bacon, Al Fresco, Al Dente... Al Qaeda.

Call up the reserves, reinstitute the draft! Nothing better get between my 50" plasma and that half-time advertising. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a western lifestyle to observe from the safe distance of my hypnocliner.

Terrorist 1: Let's place bombs all over town, wait for people to discover them, panic, call the bombsquad. Then let the bombsquad dismantle them, and discover cleverly disguised 18-volt batteries!

Terrorist 2: Hmm. Not too keen on that one...

Terrorist 1: How about if we put a flashing LED cutesy cartoon character on it, and make it light up - you know, so as to draw attention to its presence?

Terrorist 2: I'm in!

Americans are idiots

While surely true, this observation would be more relevant if the condition were exclusive to Americans. I have yet to receive any reports on the discovery a nation of supra-genii.

(Although I do expect delusional reports from various nations to begin trickling in right about... now.)

the signs have been up for 3 weeks, and nobody cared enough to do anything until now. seriously, nothing more than high tech lite-brites. Some people have snatched them up before the cops have and are selling them on ebay.
